Update install instructions #93

Closed rdbisme closed 4 years ago

rdbisme commented 5 years ago

Maybe before this we can discuss how to handle thirdparty in a smarter way to keep it up to date. e.g. on another project I download at configure time the third party libraries directly using cmake, but there's a problem here: with new catch2, tests fail.

Hey @rubendibattista, I keep getting questions offline about the installation instructions not working any more. Do you mind updating the instructions to match the new procedure and then we can have a separate discusson about how to handle thirdparty deps?

rdbisme commented 5 years ago

Ok, I'll try to work on it as soon as I have a bit of free time.

@jbscoggi Things in /docs are automatically updated with the stuff in the wiki?

Because if they're duplicated, that would also generate a lot of confusion.

jbscoggi commented 5 years ago

Good point! I forgot all about the wiki. I would prefer to move all documentation to docs and discontinue the wiki. The main reason for this is that /docs can be versioned with the source allowing to maintain consistent docs over time. I will try to go through the wiki soon and make sure there is nothing there that hasn't been moved to /docs and remove it.
